Dawud

Dawud :: Book 41 : Hadith 4759

Narrated Mu'adh ibn Jabal:

The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) said: if anyone suppresses anger when he is in a position to give vent to it, Allah, the Exalted, will call him on the Day of Resurrection over the heads of all creatures, and ask him to choose any of the bright and large eyed maidens he wishes. Muslim :: Book 32 : Hadith 6314

Bukhari :: Book 8 :: Volume 73 :: Hadith 135

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah's Apostle said, "The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the strong is the one who controls himself while in anger."

Allah loves

When My servants ask you about Me, I am indeed close (to them): I respond to the call of one when he prays to Me; so they should respond to Me, and have faith in Me, so that they may be on the right path. [2:186]

Truly, Allah loves those who repent, and He loves those who cleanse themselves.[2:222]

As for those who do evil, and repent thereafter, and embrace faith, your Lord is then most forgiving, very merciful (for them) (7:153)

1. We have listened, and obeyed. Our Lord, (we seek) Your pardon! And to You is the return (2:285)

2. Our Lord, do not hold us accountable, if we forget or make a mistake, and, Our Lord, do not place on us such a burden as You have placed on those before us, and, Our Lord, do not make us bear a burden for which we have no strength. And pardon us, and grant us forgiveness, and have mercy on us. You are our Lord. So then help us against the disbelieving people.(2:286)

3. Our Lord! we have indeed believed: forgive us, then, our sins, and save us from the agony of the Fire (3:16)

4. Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and anything We may have done that transgressed our duty: Establish our feet firmly, and help us against those that resist Faith.(3-147)

5. Our Lord, You have not created all this in vain. We proclaim Your purity. So, save us from the punishment of Fire.(3-191)

6. Our Lord! we have heard the call of one calling (Us) to Faith, 'Believe ye in the Lord,' and we have believed. Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and write off our evil deeds, and make us die only when we have joined the righteous.(3:193)

7. If Allah shows no mercy to us, and does not forgive us, we shall certainly be among the losers (7:149)

8. Our Lord, we adhere to the (true) faith, so forgive us and have mercy upon us, and you are the best of all the merciful.(23:109)

9. My Lord, grant pardon and have mercy, for you are the best of all the merciful.(23:118

The Most High - said

It is recommended for every Believing man and woman to recite the Book of Allah often, with due contemplation and understanding. This may be done by using a copy of the Qur'aan or from one's memory. Allaah - the Most High - said: "This is a Book which We have sent down to you, full of blessings, that you may ponder over its Verses, and that men of understanding may remember." [Surah Saad 38:29]. And: "Indeed those who recite the Book of Allaah and offer the Prayer perfectly and spend in charity out of what We have provided for them - secretly and openly - hope for a sure trade-gain that will never perish. That He may pay the their wages in full and give them even more out of His Grace. Indeed, He is Oft-Forgiving, ready to appreciate good deeds."

[Surah Fatir 35:29-30]

Allah (SWT) says in the glorious quran

Kuch qabar ka sona bhi tujhai yaad hain ghafil takya na milaga tujhai bestar na milaiga.............

When My servants ask you about Me, I am indeed close (to them): I respond to the call of one when he prays to Me; so they should respond to Me, and have faith in Me, so that they may be on the right path.” [Al-Baqarah 2:186]

"Truly, Allah loves those who repent, and He loves those who cleanse themselves."
[Al-Baqarah 2:222]

Be dutiful to your Lord

O mankind! Be dutiful to your Lord, Who created you from a single person (Adam), and from him (Adam) He created his wife (Hawwa (Eve)), and from them both He created many men and women and fear Allah through Whom you demand your mutual (rights), and (do not cut the relations of) the wombs (kinship). Surely, Allah is Ever an AllWatcher over you.(Surah: An-Nisa, Verse #: 1 )

And give unto orphans their property and do not exchange (your) bad things for (their) good ones; and devour not their substance (by adding it) to your substance. Surely, this is a great sin.(Surah: An-Nisa, Verse #: 2 )

And if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphangirls, then marry (other) women of your choice, two or three, or four but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one or (the captives and the slaves) that your right hands possess. That is nearer to prevent you from doing injustice.(Surah: An-Nisa, Verse #: 3 )

And give to the women (whom you marry) their Mahr (obligatory bridal money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage) with a good heart, but if they, of their own good pleasure, remit any part of it to you, take it, and enjoy it without fear of any harm (as Allah has made it lawful).(Surah: An-Nisa, Verse #: 4 )

On the authority of Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) say:

" Allah the Almighty said: O son of Adam, so long as you call upon Me and ask of Me, I shall forgive you for what you have done, and I shall not mind. O son of Adam, were your sins to reach the clouds of the sky and were you then to ask forgiveness of Me, I would forgive you. O son of Adam, were you to come to Me with sins nearly as great as the earth and were you then to face Me, ascribing no partner to Me, I would bring you forgiveness nearly as great at it."

[Tirmidhi]

"So glorify your Lord with His praises, and pray for His forgiveness: surely He is ever ready to accept repentance." Al-Quran [Nasr-110:3]
